Need a Generator Technician or Operator in Lagos? We Staff & Manage Vetted Powerhouse Personnel
Not every site needs the same kind of person on the generator. Some need a technician to diagnose and repair; others just need a dependable operator to run the powerhouse day-to-day and make sure the generator switches on the moment utility power fails. PowerFix supplies whichever your site needs — on an ongoing, outsourced basis. The staff member stays on our payroll — we handle recruitment, vetting, compliance and performance management — while your organisation pays a single ongoing rate for full-time on-site or scheduled-rotation coverage.
Hiring the Right Powerhouse Person Yourself Is Harder Than It Looks
Technical vetting is specialised
Most in-house HR teams can't tell a genuinely OEM-trained Cummins or Perkins technician from someone reciting the right vocabulary at interview.
Turnover leaves you exposed
When a sole in-house technician resigns, your facility runs without generator coverage until a replacement is found and vetted.
Payroll and compliance overhead
A single technical hire still carries full payroll, pension and compliance administration — disproportionate overhead for one role.
How PowerFix Workforce Solutions Works
From brief to placement in four steps — PowerFix manages the recruitment and employment relationship end-to-end.
1. Brief
Tell us the site, brand exposure needed, and whether coverage is full-time on-site or scheduled rotation.
2. Vet & Shortlist
Candidates are screened against PowerFix's own technical standard and matched to your brand/fleet profile.
3. Place
The technician is deployed to your site. PowerFix remains the employer of record — payroll, pension and compliance stay with us.
4. Manage
Ongoing performance oversight, and a managed replacement from our pipeline if the placement ever needs to change.
